Qom Persian Rug 150 × 100 cm, Silk, hand-knotted

At a glance

A Qom from Iran, measuring 150 × 100 cm. It covers approximately 1.5 m², or 4.9' × 3.3'. Qom is known for very finely knotted rugs, often in silk.

What it is made of

Stated material: silk, silk warp.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 1,000,000+ knots/m². Very fine knotting of this kind takes many times the working hours and shows correspondingly precise pattern work.

Colour and appearance

The stated colourway is multicolour. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
